Rome is one of the most visited cities in the world. Visitors are attracted to the Eternal City for its ancient history, art, architecture, panoramic views, and of course, its food. The Pantheon and the Colosseum are among the city’s most popular attractions. Eager tourists gather around the Trevi Fountain to make a wish as they toss a coin into its clear waters. Afterward, enjoy sumptuous Italian dishes such as the city’s very own spaghetti alla carbonara. But how about something different when you visit Rome by booking accommodation in Italy’s countryside? It is equally delightful and still accessible to many of the city’s attractions — minus the commotion of the capital. Imagine waking up to the panoramic beauty of the Roman countryside.
